Research activities
My research work is mainly focused on the study of gauge theories, investigated by means of Monte Carlo lattice simulations. The final goal is a better understanding of the non-perturbative physics of these theories, which include four dimensional Yang-Mills theories and QCD, but also lower dimensional models. Typical phenomena investigated are color confinement, theta-dependence and critical properties of these models at phase transitions.
